"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

This is a bit of a self reinforcing problem. It's not magic that makes hardware work on windows. It works better on windows because people put time into making it work on windows. They didn't do the same for Linux because there's fewer users there.
I'm sure you can imagine the scene that's like
Eng: "I don't know if it'll work on Linux. I want some more time to test it"
Boss: "how many users we have on Linux?"
Eng: "a few hundred"
Boss: "yeah no, just ship it as is"
But the good news is as more people use Linux, that conversation changes.
